Download Music To Hard Drive

Hi,

I have recently purchased a BMW 5 series 2012.

When copying music from a 2gb USB drive to the system it displays it in a folder called USB on the system, whereas if you were to copy a CD onto the system it copies it as the album name. Is there any way i can move the albums out from USB folder to the main area where the CD copies go? Reason being is i then copied more music which then puts it in a folder called USB1, so i am having to go into each folder to find the right album.

I have tried a 64GB USB stick but the car doesnt accept it. Do you know what the max size a USB drive can be?

Thanks
